Two-component large-scale radio emission in Abell 2244

M. Cianfaglione, F. De Gasperin, V. Cuciti +9

Context. In recent years, clusters have been observed that host multi-component haloes, both in non-merging and merging systems. The existence of these multi-component haloes sugge…

The ultra low-frequency spectral properties of bright extended radio galaxies in the 3CRR catalogue

J. M. Boxelaar, F. De Gasperin, M. J. Hardcastle +2

Context. Active galactic nuclei (AGN) jets are fundamental drivers of galaxy evolution, injecting kinetic energy into their environments. The large-scale morphology and spectral pr…

The LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey: VII. Third Data Release

T. W. Shimwell, M. J. Hardcastle, C. Tasse +99

We present the third data release of the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS-DR3). The survey images cover 88% of the northern sky and were created from 12,950 hrs of data (18.6 PB)…

LOFAR 58 MHz Legacy Survey of the 3CRR Catalog

J. M. Boxelaar, F. De Gasperin, M. J. Hardcastle +4

The Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) is uniquely able to perform deep, 15" resolutions imaging at frequencies below 100 MHz. Observations in this regime, using the Low Band Antenna (LBA…

A Robust Model for Flux Density Calculations of Radio Halos in Galaxy Clusters: Halo-FDCA

J. M. Boxelaar, R. J. van Weeren, A. Botteon

Here we present Halo-FDCA, a robust open source Python package for modeling and estimating total flux densities of radio (mini) halos in galaxy clusters. Radio halos are extended (…

Diffuse Radio Emission from Galaxy Clusters in the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey Deep Fields

E. Osinga, R. J. van Weeren, J. Boxelaar +15

Low-frequency radio observations are revealing an increasing number of diffuse synchrotron sources from galaxy clusters, dominantly in the form of radio halos or radio relics. The…

LOFAR observations of galaxy clusters in HETDEX

R. J. van Weeren, T. W. Shimwell, A. Botteon +20

Diffuse cluster radio sources, in the form of radio halos and relics, reveal the presence of cosmic rays and magnetic fields in the intracluster medium (ICM). These cosmic rays are…
